Available for Fabric and Quilt, this mod aims to be the most vanilla-friendly bronze mod available for modern Minecraft.
Tin is a new mineable resource which can be combined with copper to create bronze, a useful metal that is slightly better than iron, but worse than diamond.
Your first step is to gather some raw tin and copper.
Bronze armor is a tier slightly above iron and below diamond.
Most pieces have the same armor value as iron, but sport 2 distinct benefits over iron:
- Bronze armor has ~16% more durability than iron
- All bronze armor pieces have
+1 Armor Toughness. - The bronze chestplate has one more armor point compared to iron
Crafting bronze armor is the same as crafting iron armor, but using Bronze Ingots instead of Iron Ingots.
Bronze armor fully supports Minecraft's new armor trimming system. Mix and match colors for the perfect set of armor.
Bronze Tools are slightly better than iron, but much worse than diamond
As you may expect, this mod adds bronze variants of all vanilla tools. These tools have stats similar to iron, but with some distinct benefits:
Bronze tools have 350 durability instead of iron's 250
Bronze tools are ~14% faster than iron tools
Bronze tools have 0.5 more attack damage than iron tools
This mod adds a new tool in addition to the 4 standard bronze tools - the Sickle.
This item helps you manage the flora in your world. It can harvest fully-grown crops on farmland as well as short and tall grass, leaving flowers and bushes intact.
The Sickle is the perfect item for builders, who want to clear an area of land before building, as well as farmers, who will benefit from faster crop harvests and auto-replanting.
Drops from blocks destroyed with the sickle are respected, so you will still get all those seeds from the grass you cut down.
Did you know: The sickle is in the same class as shears, compasses, clocks and the archaeology brush - it doesn't have different material tiers, and can subsequently only be made from bronze.
The bronze mod has three main goals it aims to achieve:
- Give copper a whole new avenue of utility outside of redstone and building
- Flesh out midgame progression for survival Minecraft
- Add simple but useful features that enhance vanilla-centered gameplay

With this in mind, there are a few new features I'd like to implement in the Bronze mod going forward:
This mod already includes a few non-combat blocks and items, such as the Bronze Door, Bronze Trapdoor and Sickle, but I believe there's room for more.
Iron ingots have many different roles in vanilla Minecraft. They can be used for armor, weapons, tools, pistons, chains, pressure plates and about 35 other recipes.
While I don't want bronze to be as useful as iron, as I believe it would take away from iron's mid-game dominance as a useful material too much, I do want to add some unique features that round the material out.
To simplify this thought process:
- ❌ This mod will not hijack all of iron's recipes with its own versions, e.g. Bronze Bucket, Bronze Shears etc.
- ✅ This mod will come up with simple new utilities/blocks for bronze that don't feel out of place in the base game e.g. Sickle
Also, much like the Basic Weapons mod, I intend to update this mod with each new major version of Minecraft going forward. If you've read this far, thank you! I hope you enjoy using this mod, and if you have any queries/issues contact me via the mod's GitHub issues, or in the CurseForge comments 🙂.
